Braves vs Red Sox prediction
Boston has really struggled this year to string together wins. They’ve won two straight games just twice this year and haven’t done so in almost a month. Atlanta hasn’t been much better but has done well in games that Ian Anderson has started. The Braves are scoring over 6 runs/gm during his starts and have won three of five overall. This is in complete contrast to Boston’s success, or lack thereof, with Nathan Eovaldi on the mound. They’re 2-4 and have scored just 7 total runs during his last four outings.
Both starters have done their part to help their teams win regardless of offensive support. Eovaldi hasn’t allowed more than 3 ER in any of his six starts this year. While, Anderson has gone four straight starts without allowing more than 2 ER. The difference in this game may well come down to bullpen strength where the Braves have been far superior to the Red Sox. Boston has the 10th worst bullpen ERA and has allowed the 8th most hits. Atlanta’s meanwhile ranks top 10 in ERA, hits allowed, whip, and strikeouts. The Braves are at home, have hit well in support of Ian Anderson, and have a much better bullpen than their opponent.
Pick: Atlanta Braves ML (-120)
